Danilo Gallinari was sporting quite a shiner during the Los Angeles Clippers’ game against the Denver Nuggets on Sunday.
Gallinari got hurt during the team’s win at Memphis on Friday night when he took a shot to the face.

Playing with a black eye didn’t seem to bother Gallinari, who mostly shot the ball well against Denver. Gallo is averaging 18.8 points and 6.0 rebounds per game this season.
